The evening will not be livestreamed. --- With his usual pitch-perfect prose, Colson Whitehead paints a portrait of a city in transition, where shimmering skyscrapers rise to the heavens as displaced people huddle in abandoned tunnels below. In a dazzling display of protean imagination, Cool Machine roves all over the city, from Windows on the World to the Meadowlands, to show that in New York, and in the lives of Whitehead’s vivid characters, it’s what’s below the surface that reveals the truth. Colson Whitehead is a #1 New York Times bestselling author and a two-time winner of the Pulitzer Prize, for The Nickel Boys and The Underground Railroad (which received the National Book Award and was named one of the Ten Best Books of the Year by The New York Times Book Review). He is the author of The Noble Hustle, Zone One, Sag Harbor, The Intuitionist, John Henry Days, Apex Hides the Hurt, The Colossus of New York, and the two previous books in the Harlem Trilogy: Harlem Shuffle and Crook Manifesto. He is also a Pulitzer Prize finalist and a recipient of the MacArthur and Guggenheim Fellowships. He lives in New York City. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/winnipeg/an-evening-with-pulitzer-prize-winning-author-colson-whitehead-tickets-required/200030234895438 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 94 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Winnipeg - **state**: MB - **country**: Canada - **location**: WAG-Qaumajuq - **lat**: 49.88944 - **long**: -97.15057 - **full address**: WAG-Qaumajuq, 300 Memorial Blvd, Winnipeg, MB R3C 1V1, Canada ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: An Evening with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Colson Whitehead (TICKETS REQUIRED) - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/ccff3b7166c7c2b8be409f8788f5d51f51730a9aa64cc53d25240d787d27c31f-rimg-w1200-h675-dc080808-gmir?v=1785865898 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is An Evening with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Colson Whitehead (TICKETS REQUIRED) being held? - **A:** An Evening with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Colson Whitehead (TICKETS REQUIRED) takes place on Tue, 04 Aug, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Tue, 04 Aug, 2026 at 08:00 pm at WAG-Qaumajuq, 300 Memorial Blvd, Winnipeg, MB R3C 1V1, Canada. - **Q**: Who is organizing An Evening with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Colson Whitehead (TICKETS REQUIRED)? - **A:** An Evening with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Colson Whitehead (TICKETS REQUIRED) is organized by McNally Robinson Booksellers. - **Q**: What has been the experience of attendees at McNally Robinson Booksellers's events? - **A:** McNally Robinson Booksellers has 107+ followers on AllEvents, reflecting a trusted and active community of event-goers who follow their events.
